Edgar Allan Poe wrote about ravens, tell-tale hearts, and never being truly alone in a dark room. He never wrote about neon-pink sunglasses, until now. The I Put The Lit in Literature Edgar Allan Poe Shirt takes the master of macabre and gives him a playful pop-art makeover. Made from 100% cotton with a classic, non-fitted cut, this Unique Gift for Teacher, Book Lovers & Librarian Who Loves Reading proves that classic literature can still be cool. Wear it to class, book club, or just to confuse your English professor.
About I Put The Lit in Literature Edgar Allan Poe Shirt
Here’s the problem with classic literature merch. It’s always so serious. Black covers, moody fonts, pictures of old men frowning. We wanted something different. The phrase “I PUT THE LIT” arches across the top in bold white letters. Below it sits a black-and-white ink-sketch portrait of Poe himself somber, intense, exactly how you remember from your high school textbook. Then comes the twist. A pair of vibrant, neon-pink Wayfarer-style sunglasses sits right on his face. Suddenly, the guy who wrote “The Raven” looks ready for a poetry slam after-party. The bottom text reads “IN LITERATURE” to complete the pun. It’s smart, silly, and secretly educational.
